A WONDERFUL WRITER'S RESOURCE


by Angela Ackerman & Becca Puglisi

Have you ever sat there trying to think of new, fresh ways to describe emotion in your writing?  I know I have, and that’s why I found TheBookshelf Muse blog site a wonderful writer’s resource.  And why I’m pleased they published, The Emotion Thesaurus.  So if your characters are nodding and smiling too much this thesaurus might give your imagination a boost.

The Bookshelf Muse blog is also worth a look.  There you will find thesauruses for weather, settings, character traits, colour, textures, shapes, and so much more.
